Keep your eyes peeled for the eerie orange sun, which could make a reappearance today.

The ‘hurricane sun’ which lit up skies above Nottinghamshire on Monday could return today, the Met Office has warned.

The phenomenon caused the sun to appear an intense orange / red colour, casting an eerie light across the sky.
